OKâlaKatiget Society contacted all the coastal communities to see what the ice and roads are like.
In Rigolet, the ice is completely gone, and people are going out on speedboats.
They’ve had open water since late April of this year.
In Makkovik, they have quite a bit of ice yet, but no one is going on it, as it is not safe anymore.
Postville has no ice near the dock, and no one is going on the ice there either.
OK Radio contacted Hopedale and Nain, but were unable to get any official information at this time.
We will have more information on Hopedale and Nain’s ice conditions when it becomes available.
